Turnips

Hey so I read yesterday that before humans discovered turnips, they had no way of keeping livestock fed over the winter. Good thing we are growing turnips at the garden.
Also, there is a recipe for pirate stew online that uses turnips- see, they are useful!!!!
And, they grow really easily and just about anywhere in any type of soil, weather, and acidity.
AND they look really cool.

Totally justified.
